Help Save Bees

There are about 250 species of bee in the UK. Only 25 of these are native British bumblebees – half of what we had in the 1950s. Three have already become extinct, five are currently under serious threat and two more are precariously close. So what can you do to help? As well as planting bee-friendly plants and not using insecticides, you could join Euan Brierley, our beekeeper, on 4th June for a walk and talk on bees. Or, alternatively, sign up to our in depth course to develop the skills needed to take up the hobby. http://helpsavebees.co.uk/
